Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

The next day, I woke up feeling determined to talk to Ace. The day before was wonderful, but I had to make today count.

I pulled on comfortable clothes after my shower and let my hair loose, since Ace liked it better that way.

With a pep in my step and a firm hand on my tummy, I made my way towards Ace's office. I knocked two times before pushing my way through, but unfortunately, he wasn't there.

My eyes caught something on his desk, and I reluctantly retrieved the file that was opened. It was a monthly report of a woman's condition. I knew, because it was written in bold at the top of the paper.

jumped up and hugged him. I didn't know why I was so happy, but I felt like I knew his mom all my life. With one last kiss, I met Ryan

to definitely tell Ace about the mission later on, but for now I just wanted to see

the way to the visitors' room, and I noticed some other nurses

I asked Ace to keep 'us' from his pack until my four months were over. But once we talk later, our mateship can be revealed to his members and I
